But I'm lacking a best-friend-with-breasts to snuggle with and walk beside. There's an empty space beside me that my dog and all my friends combined just can't occupy.

I’m really good at

Bleh, boring question. Time for some poetry!

You Who Never Arrived (1)

You who never arrivedin my arms, Beloved, who were lostfrom the start,I don't even know what songswould please you. I have given up tryingto recognize you in the surging wave ofthe next moment. All the immenseimages in me -- the far-off, deeply-feltlandscape, cities, towers, and bridges, andunsuspected turns in the path,and those powerful lands that were oncepulsing with the life of the gods--all rise within me to meanyou, who forever elude me.

--Rainer Maria Rilke

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food

I don't read much nonfiction, but I enjoyed "Buddhism Without Beliefs" by Stephen Batchelor.

I have been enjoying Elementary, Archer, and *loving* the psychological tension in Jessica Jones. I strongly tend to prefer Marvel over DC, if that means anything to you, and believe "reality shows" are fake from the get-go, even if a few (Pit Boss) have genuine drama in them. (Met Shorty briefly; he 'reads' as a genuinely decent person.)

Too much. Trying to add meditation to help me relax and exist in the moment more.

On a typical Friday night I am

Spending relaxed time with friends, or snuggling with my dog, or walking (when weather permits). Working on my house. Love live music; don't see enough of it lately.

On EXCELLENT Friday nights I am throwing parties for a few (dinner), or many (epic cocktail parties, with toys, TV, and a dog to keep the kids safely entertained on the second floor).

You should message me if

You think of yourself as smart, attractive, and pretty damned cool. You don't want to be average. You love affection of all kinds - from friends, kids, animals of any sort, but especially your man. Seriously: I'm big on humans talking with their touch.
